Healthy Turkey Meatballs with Asian-Style Rainbow Chard
This quick and healthy turkey meatballs recipe has become one of my favourite workout meals. It is high in protein, bursting with flavours and made in just 20 minutes.
Add all the ingredients except for the coconut oil to a medium-sized mixing bowl and combine well, using a fork. Roll the mixture into about 12 golf ball-sized balls.
Heat the coconut oil in a frying pan and fry the meatballs for about 4 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through. They should turn golden-brown.
Asian-Style Rainbow Chard
Separate the rainbow chard stems from the leaves and chop them into 1/2 inch sized pieces. Roughly chop the leaves and set aside because they cook slower.
Heat the coconut oil in a pan over low-medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook for about a minute. Make sure that the garlic doesn't burn.
Now add the rainbow chard stems and chickpeas and cook for about 4 minutes. Then slowly add a handful of the rainbow chard leaves at a time until each batch has wilted. Stir occasionally.
Pour in the tamari sauce and sesame oil, give it a stir and cover for a few more minutes until the rainbow chard has softened.
